Theoutlet pipe 4 is here directed laterally relative to the insert-carryingportion 3, but may alternatively be directed downwards. - An insert 5 is removably located in the insert-carrying
portion 3 of the floor drain. This insert 5 includes apipe member 6 which at the top has an outwardly directed support flange 7 which is adapted to rest on inwardly directed support surfaces 8 on theouter member 1. At the top, thepipe member 6 also includes asealing ring 9 which is in contact with downwardly directedsurfaces 10 on theouter member 1, so that a sealing is obtained between saidouter member 1 and the insert 5.

This means that thevalve body 25 can be given a very low centre of gravity. - The upwardly
open member 33 may be cylindrical and theweight 34 may be a cylindrical body of metallic material. - The cylindrical
hollow body 26 has at the top aseat 36 for asealing ring 37 which is adapted to provide a sealing between said cylindricalhollow body 26 and thecap 28. Thecap 28 can preferably be snapped onto the cylindricalhollow body 26 so that it can be removed when required for change ofweight 34.

Saidguide portions 52 preferably includemembers 53 which are located inside the screening means 40 and which may be connected with thecylindrical member 42 as well as with theupper wall portion 43. - As is apparent from fig. 2, the screening means 40 is designed and located so that it from above covers and receives the major part of the
valve body 25 when said valve body floats in the liquid in theliquid seal 22 so that theliquid streams 41 flowing downwards pass saidvalve body 25 externally thereof in downwards direction towards theopening 15, whereby liquid will flow out of thewater seal 22 via theupper edge 24 of the liquid--containingmember 20. - The invention is not limited to the embodiment described above and illustrated in the drawings, but may vary within the scope of the following claims. As not specifically described alternatives one should mention that the oil cut-off device may be used in other types of floor drains than the type shown and it may also be used in roof drains. The
valve body 25 may be of another design than what is illustrated and the screening means 40 may also be designed otherwise than what is shown and may also consist of more than one member.
